Conceptual and practical approaches for investigating irreversible processes

open access: yesNew Journal of Physics
Current research in statistical mechanics mostly concerns the investigation of out-of-equilibrium, irreversible processes, which are ubiquitous in nature and still far from being theoretically understood.

Natural Nonequilibrium States in Quantum Statistical Mechanics

open access: yesJournal of Statistical Physics, 2000
A quantum spin system is discussed, where a heat flow between infinite reservoirs takes place in a finite region. A time dependent force may also be acting. Our analysis is based on a simple technical assumption concerning the time evolution of infinite quantum spin systems.

Coagulant‐Controlled Solvent Exchange Influences Multiscale Ordering in Cellulose Regeneration From Ionic Liquids

open access: yesAdvanced Chemical Engineering, Volume 1, Issue 2, December 2026.
Coagulant‐dependent solvent exchange reshapes the interaction environment during cellulose regeneration, producing distinct pathways of multiscale structural evolution. Time‐resolved optical, spectroscopic, and scattering measurements, supported by molecular simulations, connect transport, hydrogen‐bond reorganization, and glucopyranose‐ring ordering ...

Quantum Thermodynamic Transformation Optics: A Unified Framework for Energy and Entropy With Application to the Casimir Force in Dissipative Metamaterials

open access: yesNanophotonics, Volume 15, Issue 21, 12 November 2026.
Geometry in transformation optics can be extended to control quantum–thermal fluctuations, enabling redistribution of energy, entropy, and Casimir pressure in dissipative metamaterials. ABSTRACT A novel concept, quantum thermodynamic transformation optics (QTTO), is introduced as a theoretical framework integrating transformation optics with ...

Nitride MXenes Beyond Carbides: Bridging the Gap Between Computational Prediction and Experimental Realization

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 89, 5 November 2026.
Nitride MXenes remain constrained by a persistent gap between computational prediction and experimental realization. This Review identifies the thermodynamic, kinetic, and chemical barriers limiting their synthesis, critically evaluates emerging fabrication routes, and proposes a multidimensional computational‐experimental framework to accelerate the ...

Compendium of the foundations of classical statistical physics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Roughly speaking, classical statistical physics is the branch of theoretical physics that aims to account for the thermal behaviour of macroscopic bodies in terms of a classical mechanical model of their microscopic constituents, with the help of ...

Culinary Chemistry as a Platform for Interfacial Materials Design

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 13, Issue 21, 6 November 2026.
Culinary processes control interfaces through heating, shear, gelation, and molecular transport. This Review connects selected gastronomic examples with food‐derived nanomaterials, plasmonic sensing, anthocyanin photovoltaics, and intelligent packaging. Original agar‐based plasmonic films illustrate the proposed translation.
